Ruby Redear

I have seen this turtle on more than one occasion now & have come to realize that the white spots on her back are not bird droppings. They are always there and the same so must be scars from some damage/injury at some point. But it makes her easily identifiable so I figured it was time to give her a name. So, meet Ruby Redear.
